Wine Advocate Review
Rated 92
This is a beloved Sicilian blend of 59% Inzolia and 41% Sauvignon Blanc (a Tasca clone). The Tenuta Regaleali Tasca d'Almerita 2022 Sicilia Nozze d'Oro opens to a shiny luminous appearance and cheerful aromas of citrus, bergamot, bitter almond and crushed oyster shell. The wine is fermented cold in stainless steel and aged on the lees for a quick five months followed by six months in bottle. The Inzolia vines were planted in 1972 and the "Sauvignon Tasca" in 1998. Drinking Window 2024-2027.

How to Serve Liquor – Quick Tips
- Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
- Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
- Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
- Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
